'Q 9 I-I A R IJ O O N Senior Class Will I, the Class of 1929, having come to my last hours, and being in full 'possession of my faculties, feel it my duty to say a few words to my heirs concerning' the long years which we have passed together, more or less happily. , I have seen some lives that rolled on with such perfect peaceful! ness and quiet, no startling upheavals, no change of any kind, that it seemed wearisome just to behold them. Yet I believe that a life full of 'tups and downs is the most. enjoyable because a varied existence is attractive to every human being. I am arranging my worldly effects and consigning to my lawful and natural heirs 'all my worldly goods, to each one the peculiar property s-eeming best fitted to his or her needs. I further want it to be distinctly understood that if anyone of the beneficiaries of this will shall attempt to dispute or in any way change the items in it, he, or she, will be immediately cut off wholly and entirely from any and all of its provisions. I, the class as ai whole, do will and bequeath the following items: To the Freshmen, to be disposed of as they see fit, I give and be queath all the tears shed in the exams, and all the wrong answers set down in moments of weakness. I 'llo the Sophomores, who are soon to become Juniors, I bequeath and devise all my stupidity and facility for blundering at the simplest tasks, also all the beautiful ease with which I set aside and banished forever the difficult ones. To the Juniors, I give my dignity and modesty, both of which they are sadly in need and which I will never need again. I give and bequeath to our Superintendent, Mr. Stith, a twig of forget-me-nots, so that when any positions are vacant, the Class of '29 may be remembered. VVe, the individual members, having personal bequests do place them below: I, Sylvia Anderson, leave my flirtationus ways to Mildred Fiscus. tBe careful, menj I, Gordon Abbott, will my love for fresh air to Gifford Metcalf. tPity the girls.j Page Twenty-One
